Please remember that even according to the official polls, at least 28,000,000 (20%) of Russian citizens do not support the war.
I feel the need to repeat this in every message: I am a Russian national, living outside of Russia, I do not pay taxes in Russia. I am strongly against war (this or any other). The war is causing massive death and destruction to the country where half of my friends come from, and indirectly to my own country. Regardless of that, I am ready to accept any hate coming towards me due to my place of birth.
Having said that, I am in the position to understand where people are coming from. My late great-grandfather hated not only the Nazis, but all Germans because of what they leaders did to his people. Decades after the war, he still wanted all Germans to die. I couldn't blame him, nor can I blame the rest of the world today.
